WSPA has been working hard to help end one of the cruelest industries in the world -- bear farming in Asia. The bears are kept in tiny steel cages, unable to stand or move around. In order to obtain their gall bile for use in medicinal products and luxury goods, the animals are surgically mutilated and undergo torturous procedures on a regular basis. WSPA is campaigning to ensure that bear farming is brought to an end.

  • Do the bile products actually work for any of the purposes believed? If it does, can it be synthesized?

  • A synthetic version of the active ingredient in bear bile, Ursodeoxycholic acid, is already being used in both traditional and modern medicine.

  • All for the sake of stupid superstitious belief that bear bile can cure illness. Unbelievable! Poor Asiatic black bears... no wonder listed as endangered...

  • @hal9khal : You forgetting brother, 90% of the products are selling in the USA.

  • @GUMMERUP well we have to cause thats how we survive.... so killing a chicken isnt a big deal to you ? just bears ? chickens are animals to and you know you eat it

  • when some genius make the idea that children` brains can treat something trivial, I believe that in Asia they would build farms for that.

  • @azby0ybza Where can I find it?

  • well if jackie chans against this then im in!

  • Check out Jackie Chan's WSPA video.

    Give him & WSPA your support.

  • so if there is alternatives to the bile derived from these bear why doesnt the chinese government invest in productions of these alternatives?

    animal cruelty should not be allowed even if its for the "improvement" of human health.

    the bile doesnt even cure anything, only help in liver disease eye sight among others.

    'putting the life of the bear population should not be considered

  • Bear bile will not solve your little problems.

  • omg my grandma has some of those products, i hate her now!!!
